Smile Week 2 JULY! Show your pics!

Okay, another new week and a new picture! This one is of the one end of my Staging Area with what I call the Power Lineup.



Don't be shy, let's see what you've been doing, there aren't any Rivet Counters around! It's OKAY!!

Over the week-end, I finished up on JL Innovations' N scale Ice House kit. While not for the faint of heart, and certainly not a one evening project, it worked up into a fine looking structure for the D&RJRR. I'm not certain how many hours I put into it but, I worked on it over four days.

Cool Very Nice, ABS!!!!

Cp- I must admit, I DID try to get some good ol' Canuck Power in here, but a funny thing happened to the locomotives on the way down...

















What can I say??? Get those crews off the Molson!

THAT'S a Scary Pic!

I don't know about you, but when I look at these wreck shots, I look pretty hard at the cabs of the engines, wondering what they were doing/thinking when everything started to fall apart! Your pic with the rail shoved into the cab is pretty bad, I wonder if the Conductor was sitting on that side and if he lived!

The pic I found had to be outright horrifying if that engine on it's side was the lead locomotive. There's some remains of another engine above it with the engine cowling torn off, that may have been the lead.

Imagine riding along, and then the thing jumps the tracks, and the other two or three engines start piling up over top, and you see the dirt coming in!

Someone got some combat fatigue time for these rides to the Amusement Park! How could a crew climb in and do it again??

If there's a front side, there's a back side, too!

You saw the locos from the front in Staging, here's the other end!
